My nieces attended Barfa Bear and the confidence they entered Kindergarten was a result of the care and time the Barfa Team spent with the children to prepare them. The learning curriculum , the meals and fun excursions make it a great place for the little ones to look forward to attending. Thanks Girls !!!

Welcome to Barfa Bear Childcare!
A Family owned and operated Christian Child Care Centre for children aged 2-5 years
We believe that all children are special, individual, precious gifts from God.
Con & Dora Savva always dreamed of opening a child care centre – and in January 2006, their dream finally came true with the opening of BarfaBearChild Care Centre.
Barfa Bear has a real warm home-like setting. From outside the building you would not think it was a child care centre, and that’s how we like it! Barfa Bear is licensed for 36 children per day, between the ages of 2yrs-5yrs. We are open 7.30am – 6.00pm approx. 50 weeks per year, closing at no charge to families over the Christmas/New Years period.
Barfa Bear is an air-conditioned building with security intercom for parental access.

The Educators at Barfa Bear Child Care Centre always go above and beyond for my child. They put each individual child first and work on their development in fostering learning through a range of experiences.

This room combines two age groups, offering children the chance to interact with children of different ages. Three or four educators are in this room, each dedicated to a specific age group and working with the children’s own interests. Children enjoy the outdoor space which offers plenty opportunities for physical play to develop gross motor skills.
4 - 5 years
The children in this room enjoy care from on average three educators who are focused on school readiness to prepare them for primary school. Equipment and activities are designed to meet the needs of these older children, offering them opportunities that are both challenging and interesting. Children love their regular excursions, designed to extend their learning beyond the classroom.
All of the nutritious meals and snacks are prepared in house daily, following a menu approved by the NSW Department of Health’s Munch & Move program. As a Christian service, the centre celebrates festivities such as Easter and Christmas, and a Prayer of Grace is said before lunch.
The centre cooks prepare everything from scratch, such as chicken stock, fresh rich bolognese sauce, and the fruit and vegetable purees for the younger ones. Children all bring in a piece of fruit or a vegetable to put in the basket in the foyer, to share with their friends as they learn to contribute to their community.
The children are all seated at the table with an educator and are encouraged to talk about their meal items. The children self-serve their meals, with the educators eating with the children to role-model healthy eating and manners. The children are also then responsible for clearing their plates in preparation for compost and worm farms.
Some of the children’s favourite meals include shepherds pie, chickpea vegetable stew, chicken stir fry hokkien noodles, spinach and feta spanakopita and fish cakes with broccoli, cauliflower and sweet peas.

Barfa Bear has provided us with the utmost professional and loving care for our daughter. We realised this is where our daughter needs to be after our first induction and meeting. They have clear goals, passion and beliefs and one on one care educator to child for their personal growth. Very grateful to the entire team for everything they do, very grateful to be a part of this wonderful childcare and seeing such a positive impact and change in my child. Thank you

Barfabear Child Care Centre is the best Centre in NSW, and dare I say Australia. My 3-year-old currently attends the center, as did my 18-year-old daughter many years ago. The teachers, the vibe, the environment, the care the educators show the kids is exceptional.
